Group Camp 2024
Our first Group Camp since 2021, at Consall Scout Camp, was a great success. Our Scout Lead Volunteer, Chris Babb, took charge to earn his coveted Nights Away Permit and give our Scouts, Cubs and Beavers the opportunity to do what we do best – enjoy the great outdoors and learn some #skillsforlife.
The event kicked off on Friday 17th May with Scouts arriving on site for their first night under the stars. Cubs and Beavers followed on Saturday morning and many outdoor adventures followed…. Scouts and Cubs took part in fire lighting, archery and climbing throughout Saturday, while Beavers did some soft archery and teamwork challenges and knot tying. Campfire songs, roasting marshmallows and hot chocolates finished off Saturday nicely.
Leaders got an early wake up call by eager Beavers and Cubs on Sunday morning, breakfast was eaten and then began the task of collapsing tents in the blazing sun. All members went to do some more teamwork shelter building activities with Cubs and Beaver leaders and some wide games and prize bingo followed lunch. Spring Camp 2024 – DONE! Here’s to the next one…..
